One Islamic recruit charged that a DI repeatedly stuffed the recruit into an industrial-sized dryer and turned it on, burning him.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou\u2019re going to kill us all the first chance you get aren\u2019t you, terrorist?\u201d the drill instructor thundered at the recruit, the new Marine later alleged, according to the documents that have not been released publicly but were reviewed by The Washington Post. \u201cWhat are your plans? Aren\u2019t you a terrorist?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If it happened, it was wrong. That sort of stuff doesn&#8217;t teach anything. That&#8217;s precisely the reason that I doubt that it even happened. The drill sergeants that I know wouldn&#8217;t engage in that sort of behavior. The Military services aren&#8217;t some sort of fraternal organization that hazes new members before letting them join in.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Last week, service officials announced that 20 members of Parris Island\u2019s staff could face criminal charges or administrative discipline following the conclusion of three investigations into various abuse allegations. But the documents and an interview with a Marine official with knowledge of the investigations suggest dozens more Parris Island Marines could be implicated in the scandal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I could be wrong, but, honestly, I&#8217;m in denial that NCOs would engage in that type of activity. Pushups in the pouring-ass rain I can believe, but not this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MSN reports that a number of drill instructors at Parris Island Marine Corps Recruit Training Center &hellip; <a title=\"Recruit abuse allegations at Parris Island\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=67950\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Recruit abuse allegations at Parris Island<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":67951,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[184],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-marine-corps"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67950"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67950\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/67951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
